Technology is basically a systematic way of doing things or solving problems for the good of mankind. Technology is also a human activity directed at designing and making products like machines, computers, textiles, household devices and others, which make human living comfortable.</p> <p>Technology is the processes (method) and products (materials) that make life easy and stress free. It can also be defined as cultural traditions developed in human communities for developing the physical and biological environment. Technology is also a new knowledge, idea, skill, procedure, or technique for doing or using things which may result into new things being produced. Technological development could be traced in the following areas:</p> <ol> <li>Food</li> <li>Clothing</li> <li>Shelter</li> <li>Communication</li> <li>Transportation, and</li> <li>Manufacturing.</li> </ol> <p> </p> <h2>Technology-related Professions</h2> <p>Technology is in the area of producing things, and providing services or using things in given ways. Such areas of human endeavor include engineering and construction, medicine, pharmacy, agriculture, business and commerce.</p> <p> </p> <h2>Technology Occupations/Careers</h2> <p></p>

<h1>SAFETY GUIDELINES</h1> <p>CONTENT</p> <ol> <li>Introduction to Safety Guidelines</li> <li>Safety Guidelines for Pedestrians</li> <li>Safety Guidelines for Cyclists</li> </ol> <p> </p> <h2>Introduction to Safety Guidelines</h2> <p>Safety means protection from danger or injury. Safety guidelines are the rules to be followed in order to reduce or eliminate danger or injury. The safety of road users such as pedestrians, cyclists and motorists is highly important given the number of road accidents on roads and highways. Great importance also needs to be placed on the safety of students and their instructors in workshops in order to prevent accidents.</p> <p>Accidents are unpleasant events. They happen unexpectedly and cause injury or damage. We must plan against them by taking safety measures.</p> <p> </p> <h2>Safety Guidelines for Pedestrians</h2> <p>The following safety guidelines for pedestrians should be observed:</p> <p>1. Always walk on the left side of the road facing oncoming traffic.</p> <p>2. Where sidewalks are provided, use them rather than walking on the tarred road.</p> <p>3. Wear reflective or bright coloured clothes at night and carry a torch.</p> <p>4. When crossing the road, look left, right and left again before crossing.</p> <p>5. Walk quickly when crossing.</p> <p>6. Pedestrians should attempt to cross the road only at a safe place such as the:</p> <p>(a) Zebra crossing</p> <p>(b) Pedestrians overhead bridge</p>

Rules meant to help people avoid danger or injury are called safety guidelines. Safety guidelines for motorists are therefore rules and regulations made to ensure that motorists drive safely and responsibly in order to guarantee the safety of the motorists and other road users.<br /> <br /> </p> <p> </p> <h2>Safety Guidelines for Motorists</h2> <p>The following are the safety guidelines for motorists:</p> <ol> <li>Use of seat belts. The use of seat belts help to prevent serious injuries in the event of an accident. Seat belts hold the driver and passengers tightly onto their seats.</li> <li>Obeying all traffic rules.</li>

It is protection from risk of harm or injury. It is also protection against damage to machines, tools as well as the prevention or removal of factors that can lead to accident. Safety must be ensured in the workshop.</p> <p>A<strong> workshop</strong> is a place where technical and engineering works are carried out.</p> <p><strong>Workshop safety</strong> is protection from risk of harm or injury to humans or damage to machines and tools in the workshop.</p> <p> </p> <h2>Meaning of Workshop Accident</h2> <p>An accident is an unexpected event resulting in injury, illness or death as well as damage to property. Accident occurs as a result of hazards. Hazard is both an unsafe condition and unsafe act. It makes an accident to occur. Hazard is, therefore, any activity, situation or substance that causes harm or injury to someone in a workshop while he/she is working.</p> <p> </p> <h2>Causes of Workshop Accident</h2> <p>The basic causes of accidents are unsafe conditions of machinery, equipment, or surroundings, and the unsafe actions of persons that are caused by ignorance or neglect of safety principles.</p> <p>The following are the causes of workshop accidents:</p> <ol> <li>Lack of safety devices.</li> <li>Failure to use safety devices provided.</li> <li>Failure to follow laid-down methods for handling tools, equipment and machines.</li>

When it is wet, it can easily be molded into different shapes and sizes. We use clay to mould various objects like storage pots, cooking pots and dishes.</p> <p>We use mud to construct support for cooking pots, to build houses and also to make bricks for building houses. We make cement blocks that we use for building houses by mixing sand and cement to get typical shape. All the above solid objects made from clay, mud or cement are called ceramics.</p> <p>Ceramics break easily when dropped. We say they are brittle; this differentiates ceramics from metals, plastics, wood and rubber. Ceramics are less dense than most metals. They have high melting points.</p> <p>They are a very large group and have very wide uses such as:</p> <ol> <li>Refractory ceramics (high temperature bricks) for furnaces and flue linings.</li> <li>Tiles, such as roof tiles, glazed and unglazed floor and wall tiles, including white tiles.</li> <li>Sanitary fittings of all kinds usually known as white ware</li> <li>Common brick to high grade engineering brick used for the construction of machinery bases. Basically, they are of:</li> </ol> <p style="padding-left: 40px">(a) Structural clay products, including common bricks and sewer bricks.
